SZAMBOTI (Barry) on e-bay

This auction looks like a SCAM.....
I spoke to this guy right after the start of the auction.....
He quoted me a price, I said fine.. Told me Western Union to the UK??????????
He wouldn't end the auction until he received my money....What a joke...

Barry called me and let me know other people were offered the cue after me, and asked to send money.... I hope this guy has a couple of these????

Just a heads up to AZer's

Am I to understand that the cue is in the US and the money needs to be sent to the UK?

If the cue is in the UK, I will find out. Just get me a number and I will locate it. Also, if you can get a UK number for the person receiving the Western Union funds, I will ask them some taxing questions.

Sounds extremely fishy to me but lets get the facts first and prove the auction one way or another.

The listing was pulled by ebay with a warning not to wire money.

I had e-mailed the guy just to see if he gave me the same line about wiring money and even though the auction has been pulled, the guy still mails me with a story about buying the stick and he has a good way of transferring the money.

P.S.

Here is the warning on the page:

"Never pay for your eBay item using instant cash transfer services such as Western Union or MoneyGram or by recharging somebody's prepaid credit card. These methods are not safe to pay people you do not know personally.

In addition, these payment methods are not eligible for the eBay buyer protection programs."
